What Is Trivia.....Anyone?


The Hem loves Ken Jennings in ways most ordinary people wouldn't understand. We feel forever connected by trivia blood to the Jennings. Today's Trivia.....Anyone is a simple jeopardy round from Ken's first game. Be the first to post correctly and gain the fame of becoming today's champ. Answers will be posted tonight. The catagory is vocabulary.

1.Bovine means resembling cattle; this word that's 1 letter shorter means resembling sheep

2.When in England, if asked to snog, be aware it means this

3.This word for circumstances that lessen a punishment comes from the Latin for "soft"

4. Prefab metal sheets used to print newspapers gave us this term for standard wording, as in contracts.

5. (That's a fencing sword) The weak part of the blade is the foible; the strong part has this "f" name that can also mean what you're best at
